About this product

Product Information

"We all perform. It's what we do for each other all the time, deliberately or unintentionally. It's a way of telling about ourselves in the hope of being recognized as what we'd like to be." --Richard Avedon, 1974 The preeminent stars and artists of the performing arts from the second half of the 20th century offered their greatest gifts-and, sometimes, their inner lives-to Richard Avedon. More than 200 are portrayed in Performance, many in photographs that have been rarely or never seen before. Of course, the great stars light the way: Hepburn and Chaplin, Monroe and Garland, Brando and Sinatra. But here too are the actors and comedians, pop stars and divas, musicians and dancers, artists in all mediums with public lives that were essentially performances, who stand at the pinnacle of our cultural achievement. The celebrated author and critic John Lahr offers an elegant assessment of Avedon's achievement. Four supremely talented artists from the performing arts-Mike Nichols, André Gregory, Mitsuko Uchida, and Twyla Tharp-contribute lively and moving memoirs about their collaborations with Avedon.

Beautiful China competitively priced and exactly as described in the listings. Thankfully they were very well padded and packaged, promptly shipped, and arrived in perfect condition, in spite of a hole the shipping carrier punched through the box! Seller reduced cost of multiple purchases, which I very much appreciated. Very good prompt communication. I wish every eBay purchase went this flawlessly. I will purchase again from this seller. Highly recommended!

  • Studying great photographers

    In his time Avedon was the best fashion and celebrity photographer. He had a fun, swinging ‘60s, go-go boots style that broke the mold. I loved that most of his work was with the fixed-lenses Rolleiflex TLR. Shows talent, not equipment makes great pictures

  • Avedon PERFORMANCE

    Another excellent display of Avedon's vision presented in an imaginative way! A worthwhile addition to my collection. I would recommend this volume to ANYONE.
